Re: Best quick argument against the \"social contract\" canard
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...age=0&vc=1 [/ QUOTE ] It's weird how all of your arguments are made by way of strained analogies. [/ QUOTE ] It's not strained, it's ridiculous, which is exactly the point - the analogy points out the ridiculousness of the social contract. [/ QUOTE ] So whoever can come up with the dumbest analogy wins? [/ QUOTE ] If your argument is logically analogous to a situation that is ridiculous, your argument is probably of questionable merit. [/ QUOTE ] Thank you for laying bare one of the more questionable rhetorical techniques employed by ACists - taking a point made by an opponent and downplaying it by regurgitating it via an unflattering analogy. |
